But whether it's Wal-Mart, HD, Lowe's, or Joe's Building Supplies, I
think it's a disgrace that the wages for a 40-hour week (or perhaps even
a 50- or 60-hour week) are not enough to put a roof over the worker's
head, put food on his/her table, meet the costs of transportation at
least to and from work, and cover health-care costs --at least not in
any place reasonably fit for human habitation.

The way I hear it, the usual workweek at Wal-Mart is 28 hours. 28 hours
of pay per week - try living on that!

Now that you mention it, you're probably correct. Anything over 30 hours,
you have benefits....
